Pattern Description:

Sweets for the sweet! This little hat and sock set makes the most of a fiber with beautiful drape. The âfrosting layersâ are picot hems that are knitted right on to each other, so finishing is minimal. The socks are knitted from cuff down. They feature a turned hem with a ribbed cuff, a traditional heel flap and gussets so that the socks fit snugly.For convenience and precision, pattern sizes are listed in head and leg circumferences, rather than age groups. An heirloom that will be passed down from daughter to daughter, this set is a loving gift to treasure.

I'm afraid I developed an obsession with knitting and crocheting Barbie tube tops when I was little. Fortunately, I outgrew the tube tops (in more ways than one) and I've since expanded my horizons include more substantial designs. I have a penchant for stitch patterns that look good on both sides and use them in my designs whenever I can. I love lace, cables and fair isle, but not all at once. Lately, I've been designing a lot of lace shawls. I also spin with my drop spindle, and hope someday to spin a yarn fine enough for lace.
